Charles Brown Early In The Morning
[LINUS] I really don't think you have anything to worry about, Charlie Brown. After all, science has shown that a person's character isn't really established until he's at least five years old.
[SALLY (overlapping)] The only thing wrong with my big brother, Charlie Brown, is his lack of confidence; his inferiority and lack of confidence. His clumsiness, his inferiority, his lack of confidence. His stupidity his clumsiness, his inferiority and his lack of confidence, his...
[SCHROEDER (overlapping)] Did you know that Charlie Brown has never pitched a winning baseball game, never been able to keep a kite in the air, never won a game of checkers and never successfully punted a football? Sometimes I marvel at his consistency.
[LUCY (overlapping)] Now Charlie Brown has what you call a Failure Face, Linus. Notice how it has failure written all over it. Study it carefully. You rarely see such a good example.
[CHARLIE BROWN (overlapping)] Some days I wake up early to watch the sunrise, and I think how beautiful it is, and how my life lies before me, and I get a very positive feeling about things. Like this morning for instance; the sky's so clear and the sun's so bright. How can anything go wrong on a day like this?
I'm late!
[SNOOPY] Woof!
[ALL (except Charlie Brown)] You're a good man, Charlie Brown You're the kind of reminder we need You have humility, nobility and a sense of honor that is very Rare indeed.
[SNOOPY] Woof!
[OTHERS] You're a good man, CHarlie Brown And we know you will go very far
Yes it's hard to believe Almost frightening to conceive What a good man you are.

[OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown
[CHARLIE BROWN] Trying not to rock the boat Not to make a scene A good man? Yes But I confess I don't know what they mean
I wanna rise like I should And do everything right But I lie awake at night...
With questions in my ear
I want to join the dance
[OTHERS] Oooh Never sleep Oooh Loud and deep Oooh Take the leap
[CHARLIE BROWN] But the answer isn't clear. Than I hear:

[CHARLIE BROWN] Don't wanna be late!
[ALL] Don't wanna be late for school!
[SNOOPY] Woof!
[OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown You're the kind Of reminder we need You have humility, Nobility, And a sense of honor That is very rare indeed

I'm somewhere In between
[SNOOPY] Woof!
[OTHERS] You're a good man, Charlie Brown
[CHARLIE BROWN] I don't understand
